 Posted: Sun Sep 22, 2024 3:08 am Post subject: Kodi and hardware acceleration missing |
 |
|
I installed Gentoo on a Raspberry PI 5 following the Gentoo wiki page. I then installed Kodi Git using emerge. I am connecting my PI to a Sharp TV using HDMI. I am using gbm. Everything is working (CEC, pluseaudio, gbm, kodi, video, audio) except I can't enable to DRM Prime Encoder as I am not given this option. Yes, I made sure I went into expert mode as I know it is hidden in basic. When I emerged kodi, I didn't set the gles flag. I also didn't set vaapi and vdpau. I tried with vaapi but I got a libva error when starting kodi but kodi still worked. From what I read vaapi is for Intel and vdpau is for Nvidia. I didn't set a gbm flag for mesa as when I tried it didn't show up. When I emerged mesa I did set the video cards to vc4 and v3d.

The Kodi log shows it as being detected but I can't get the option in Kodi. I also have another microSD that has arcg arm64 and it works with HW acceleration. What am i missing?[/code] |

There is no hardware encode support for Pi5 (it's not on the SoC), and the decode support* is from RPi-Distro forks of vlc and ffmpeg (https://github.com/RPi-Distro).
*though testing with my 4k-test.mkv, whilst vlc accepts hwdec=drm, the cpu usage is the same... |

| Thanks for the help. I ended up setting the gles use flag and then re-emerged Kodi and now I am seeing the enable the hardware SRM Prime Encoder option. |

| I assumed it was hw encoding all this time. I checked and it still said SW. I went back to my arch setup and it says the same. |
